  • Everything I hope Apple changes in the next-gen earbuds

    Apple may have the new AirPods 3 ready for 2021. After a year spent trapped in my house and trying to get work done, AirPods have become a practically essential tool. Lots of other excellent Bluetooth earbuds exist, but AirPods are still impressively instant and have really good microphones. Plus, being able to swap from one ear to another has helped me extend battery life by one-earing my way through long meetings.

    The second-gen AirPods are a year and a half old, while AirPods Pro are a year old, and have continued to evolve. Apple added spatial audio earlier this year, and the massively expensive AirPods Max arrived with a different proposition (I prefer small earbuds, not big headphones), so what will AirPods 3 bring? And what do I even want? For me, it’s mostly about better connection.

  • Tibet’s PM invited for the first time in 60 years to visit White House

    After 60 years, the US has taken such a step regarding Tibet, which can worsen its relationship with China. The White House has invited Central Tibet Administration (CTA) President Lobsang Senge to come here. It is believed that only after six decades, America is now recognizing the Tibetan government in exile. This exiled government of Tibet is headquartered in Dharamshala city, India.

    A CTA spokesperson present in Dharamshala has also confirmed that President Senge has received an invitation to visit the White House. Last month, Senge was called to the US State Department for the first time as a guest. Here he met Robert Destro, the special director of Tibet affairs. No Tibetan leader went to the State Department before this. CTA spokesperson said- We are happy that two democracies are recognizing each other. The CTA and its leader being invited from the White House can be said to be an important start. Senge will meet with White House officials here.

    According to the news agency, Senge became the President of the CTA in 2011. For the last about 10 years, American officers have been meeting them secretly. But, the US, taking a shocking decision this time, invited him to come directly to the White House. Senge has been very active in recent months. He met many leaders. He has also interacted with Republican senators in the US. The Dalai Lama, the highest religious leader of Tibetans, has been living in India since 1959.
